tRNA (transfer RNA) acts as an adapter molecule that features an anticodon loop containing bases complementary to the codons on the mRNA . During translation, the tRNA pairs through H-bonding with the mRNA code via its anticodons while carrying a specific amino acid at its other end . This molecular mechanism is fundamental to protein synthesis and is a high-priority concept, as NCERT textbooks serve as the primary source for approximately 95% of NEET Biology questions .
